1. After 5 Time constants, the capacitor is fully charged and the current is zero.
Therefore, Vc = 501 volts. Vr = 0 volts.
2. I = (E-Vc)/R = (501-501)/4300 = 0 Amperes.
A 6.30 μF capacitor that is initially uncharged is connected in series with a 4300 Ω resistor and a 501 V emf source with negligible internal resistance.
I need help on these two questions:
1) A long time after the circuit is completed (after many time constants), what are the voltage drop across the capacitor and across the resistor?
Express your answers in volts separated by a comma.
2) A long time after the circuit is completed (after many time constants), what is the current through the resistor?
Express your answer in amperes.
